What makes a great cleaner?

We all know what makes a bad cleaning experience: missed tasks, an inconsistent approach, and lack of shine and sparkle all lead to disappointment when we’ve spent money to outsource home or office cleaning.

At Showroom Janitorial, we’ve made it our business for more than 20 years to make our customers happy time and time again. Our experienced, family-run team are expert cleaners ready to adapt to any commercial environment. Here’s what we look and train for in all our cleaning staff:

Experience and skills. We look for candidates with a proven track record and deep knowledge in cleaning or janitorial services, especially across a variety of commercial or public facilities such as offices, schools, hospitals and clinics. 

Attention to detail. Cleaning requires a keen eye for detail, and a good janitor or cleaner will take care of all the areas that need extra attention, everything from high-traffic zones like kitchens and restrooms to dust-collecting spaces in corners, vents, shelving and closets.

Reliability and punctuality. There is no substitute for a consistently good cleaner who can also be relied upon to arrive on time, every time. We also like to train our staff to complete all tasks thoroughly within the allotted timeframe and without cutting corners.

Trustworthiness. Janitors and cleaners are part of your workplace, so integrity and trust are essential. People with positive references and demonstrated honesty and professionalism are a must, and background checks may be necessary, especially in offices where cleaners may handle sensitive areas or have access to valuable equipment.

Good communication and interpersonal skills. While cleaning is often an independent job, cleaners still need to interact with staff or customers, and report or address any problems that arise. We think flexibility and a positive attitude are also essential, especially when handling last-minute changes or special cleaning requests.

At Showroom Janitorial, all our employees fully bonded, insured and trained to deliver top-quality performance. Our cleaners are trained on best cleaning practices, including the effective and safe use of all cleaning products and equipment. Our supervisors ensure that all daily, weekly, and monthly duties are always completed. 

We take pride in the quality of our janitorial services, and it shows! For a free quote or to learn more about us, give us a call at (204) 694-9513 to learn how we can help your business.
